Abstract: Here we propose a ?Pothole detection system? which can assist the driver in avoiding the potholes on road by giving him prior warnings, thus reducing the number of road accidents causing due to potholes. Warnings can be like buzzer if the driver is approaching a pothole, or driver may be warned in advance about which road has how many potholes and their location. The government authority can also be notified through the database about the existing potholes and humps.
